Go back and read what I wrote then. The issue is
that THERE ALREADY IS SUCH A MECHANISM. We neither
need or want another way to do it. The answer is to
use the existing mechanism correctly.

Plus, you seem to be overlooking the basic need
(for userspace) to manage these IDs so they're
properly unique. Two gadgets should never end up
using the same serial number.

I tire of repeating these basic points...
